Netherlands essentials

Cash vs card

EUR1.17 to £1

Euro

Contactless and debit (PIN) are king — many places are card-only and don't take cash at all
Some shops take only Dutch 'Maestro/V-Pay' debit, not credit cards — carry a contactless card as backup
Tipping isn't expected — round up for good service

Power

Type C / F · 230V

Tap water

Tap water is excellent — drink freely.

Tipping

Round up or 5–10%

Not expected — round up a euro or two for good service.

Driving

Drive on the right. Cities are compact and bike-first; parking is scarce and expensive, and low-emission zones apply — most visitors don't need a car.

Phrases

I need a doctor

Ik heb een dokter nodig

Call an ambulance

Bel een ambulance
